TV could not be seen unless room totally dark. Front desk didn't seem to care about anything. No note pad in room. Sold frozen dinners in lobby but no microvwave in room. Lesser hotels provide them. Beds really low to floor and mattress sinks you even lower. Makes it really difficult for handicap people to get out.

Awesome hotel

I really enjoyed staying at your hotel. Everything was clean and top notch. Loved the oversized bath towels. I do have two suggestions. First. Maybe some larger trash cans, they were tiny and second maybe a night light in the bathroom. Having to turn on the overhead light at 2am was not good

Staff was not friendly. Terrible!!!! Bed was too soft. I got handicap room which I strongly disliked. Staff in the bistro couldn’t be bothered to help. If you asked for drink of any kind they acted sooooo inconvenienced. Night front desk lady barely spoke to me nor looked me in the eye. Hate it there
